  • Work with product managers to validate use cases and commercial demand early, including during evaluation of new data sources.
  • Identify portfolio gaps, overlap, and opportunities to combine datasets, reuse methodologies, and extend products across customer segments.
  • Use customer feedback and product performance to recommend which offerings to scale, improve, consolidate, or retire, and lead execution of agreed decisions.
  • Serve as the hands-on product manager for a strategically important data feed or quant-focused feed initiative, owning its vision, roadmap, requirements, and outcomes.
  • Lead customer discovery, investigate the underlying data, and translate customer needs into clear product decisions.
  • Partner with Data, Engineering, Data Science, and Quant Research to assess feasibility, shape requirements, and bring products to market.
  • Stay close to client evaluations and integrations, using feedback to improve the product and establish practices the broader team can reuse.
  • Share accountability with commercial partners for portfolio revenue growth, retention, expansion, and product economics.
  • Partner with Revenue, Client Strategy, Product Marketing, and Solutions Consulting on pricing, packaging, positioning, and effective sales and evaluation processes.
  • Build a clear portfolio story that helps customers understand which products meet their needs and how those products work together.
  • Balance near-term client requests with repeatable market opportunities, ensuring commitments inform a scalable roadmap.
  • Define and track success through customer adoption, evaluation conversion, time to value, retention, and commercial results.
  • Establish product expectations for data quality, coverage, timeliness, documentation, and delivery across the portfolio.
  • Partner with Data and Engineering on quality controls, monitoring, change management, and issue resolution.
  • Improve how customers discover, evaluate, onboard, integrate, and receive ongoing support for feeds, working with Applications and client-facing teams.
  • Ensure clients can understand each product’s methodology, limitations, historical changes, and appropriate use cases.
  • Help build a repeatable experience for quant and systematic customers, including the data history, consistency, and transparency required for rigorous evaluation.
  • Align priorities and responsibilities across Product, Data, Engineering, Research, Quant, Applications, and commercial teams.
  • Partner with Quant Research on systematic investor requirements and research-informed product improvements.
  • Work with data sourcing and partnerships teams to evaluate opportunities against customer needs, licensing constraints, quality, and economics.
  • Communicate strategy, tradeoffs, progress, and risks clearly to leadership and cross-functional partners.
Desired Qualifications

  • Familiarity with fundamental, quantitative, or systematic investment workflows, including dataset evaluation, backtesting, and integration.
  • Experience building a portfolio that serves multiple customer segments or combines multiple data sources.
